Just went outside to look at the stars, I noticed something that looked like a regular satellite gliding across the sky like I usually see on clear nights - but then i suddenly realized that it was twitching and sort of shaking up and down, very noticeably. It was all white, and moving way too fast to be an airplane. I followed it with a gaze for a while and then the light just suddenly vanished at some point in the sky so I couldnt locate it anymore, couldnt see any movement in the general direction it was going either.
What could this have been?

a satellite. the apparent vibration is the result of temperature differences in the atmosphere bending light, like heat shimmer.

Swamp gas or a weather balloon.

And the sudden disappearance is when it goes into the Earth's shadow. It had been lit by the Sun up until then.
